A Place Where You Belong Lyrics

You're gone!

You're gone!

Your body's cold, hope is lost, I can't let go
Can I die with you so we can never grow old?
Cut the ties with this note you left behind
As I read the words I hear you telling me why

Too late, too late
I never said goodbye
Too late, too late
Can't even ask you why
And now I'm wastin' away in my own misery
I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

My sadness shows as your name is carved in stone
Can't erase the words so the reality grows
I wish I'd died on that night while by your side
So just kill me now and let the good times roll

Too late, too late
I never said goodbye
Too late, too late
Can't even ask you why
And now I'm wastin' away in my own misery
I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

Will you wait for me? (Will you wait for me?)
Will I see you on the other side?
You won't have to wait too long, yeah
Will you come for me? (Will you come for me?)
Will you take me to the other side?
Cause here I don't belong

Too late, too late
I never said goodbye
Too late, too late
Can't even ask you why
And now I'm wastin' away in my own misery
I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

I never said goodbye
Can't even ask you why
I'm wastin' away in my own misery
I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

I agree with ED, however, I feel the reason she died so soon was because she took her life. "Keeping time with this note you left behind, as I read the words I hear you telling me why". She wrote why she did what she did and he's wondering why she did this. He's sad that she left him alone and hates her for it. But he still loves her, and hopes she goes to Heaven, the 'Place where you Belong'

wow completely left that out of my description haha, I was just the stereotype of this website with the straightforward comment. I agree with you too, thanks for backing up my incomplete comment :) haha

Lol, oh sorry. Guess I assumed that that's what you were talking about XD

I agree :] but I hope all the songs on the new album are about different people lol With the song Alone, where the lyrics are 'cuz your heart is made of stone, you can die and rot alone'. :|

Lyric Correction

This song is about somebody from Matt's home town in Bridgend. Back a few years ago there was a lot of teen suicides in Bridgend and all around the space of a year, I'm not sure of the the actual figures but it was over 20 youngsters that killed themselves in one year. It hit the community very hard and nearly everyone from the town was affected in somesort of way and Matt was one of these people. It was huge news here in South Wales.

I'm hearing "Your Dead" at the beginning but either make perfect sense with the rest. Then "my sadness shows as your name is carved in stone." Loving their new album. Song is pretty straightforward, love song to someone who died, he's calling out for her to save him since she left so soon. Beautiful :)

it's about matt's girlfriend, on they're website, it says she didn't die. matt even said it, i watched an interview.

Lol definately is "You're gone" guys. This song is beautiful and definately one of Bullet's best songs. Has so much meaning behind it.

I think it's "Cut the ties with this note you left behind" not "Keeping time with this note you left behind"

And I'm hearing "you're gone" at the beginning, so I think that's right.

it sounds like "You're Dead" to me at the beginning, either way the guitar solo is probably the best on this album, they really blew me away with FEVER, epic fucking album

how are you hearing, your dead?! it's you're gone. i have the lyrics booklet.

It's, "You're gone." I scream... I know this...

Cover art for A Place Where You Belong lyrics by Bullet for My Valentine

This song definitely sounds like somebody committed suicide. Either in a relationship or a family member, but mostly a relationship as it seems.

"Too late, too late I never said goodbye Too late, too late Can't even ask you why"

He/she was too late to stop the one who took their own life. He/she never got to say goodbye to that person, and he/she can't ask why because they wouldn't understand.

"Cause here I don't belong"

I think this message is clear, obviously this person believes that he/she doesn't belong here, they belong by the side of the person that committed suicide.

But other than meaning, I love this song. One of my favorites by them. <3

Beautiful song!

My Interpretation
Cover art for A Place Where You Belong lyrics by Bullet for My Valentine

Its about somebody becoming incredibly depressed over a very close person killing themselves, and the song kinda tells about how when a person commits suicide, the people around might be led into the same action. "Will I see you on the other side? You won't have to wait too long." Its a really meaningful song to me, i love it.
